Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Jan. 18, 1910.

Application filed July 13, 1908, Serial No. 443,196. Renewed December 16, 1909. Serial No. 533,398. 7

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, BARNEY TANGHOFF, a citizen of the United States, residing at Kansas City, in the county of Wyandotte and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stoves;

and I do declare the following to be a full,

ornamental and substantial stove drum,

parts of which may be renewed when necessary or desirable.

A further object of my invention is to provide the improved details of structure which will presently be fully described and pointed out in the following claim, reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which Figure I is a view, in elevation, of a stove constructed according to my invention. Fig. II is a central vertical section of same.

Fig. III is a transverse section of same Fig. IV is anenlarged perspective view of one of the tiles which, with the inner casing and outer skeleton frame, form the stove drum or body.

Referring more in detail to the parts 1 designates the stove base, which may be of any ordinary construction, and is provided with the legs 2. Supported on and rising from base 1 is a casing 3 that is open at the top and closed at all sides, but provided with the fuel and ash doors l-5 and the flue opening 6. Also seated on and rising from base 1 is a skeleton frame com-- prising the vertical standards 7 and the cross ribs 8, which are formed at regular intervals apart to provide uniform open spaces therebetween; such frame being of greater diameter than casing 3 in order to piovlide space therebetween for the reception 0 ti e.

Fitting between the casing and skeleton frame are the tiles 9, which are composed of a suitable material, preferably fire clay with an ornamental finish as indicated in tiles will contact, the upper tiles being supported on those therebeneath.

11 designates a grate that is located within the stove casing, and 12 a burner coil for furnishing fuel gas. 7

Supported on the top of the drum is a lid 13 that is preferably removable and provided with a'depending flange 14 for preventing its displacement when the stove is 1n use.

In assembling the stove parts, the casing and frame pieces are first posited on the base, and the tiles slipped in from the top to fill the space therebetween; the first tile resting on the base 1 and the bottom of each succeeding tile on the one next beneath; the beveled side edges of the tiles in adj oining sets abutting against each other. The grate may then be adjusted in the casing or the gas coil inserted when it is desired to utilize gas for fuel, after which the lid 13 is seated on the top of the drum to cover the combustion chamber and prevent the escape ofsmoke and fumes.

Should'one of the tiles become broken or disfigured, the lid 13 may be taken off and the tiles above the one to be replaced slipped out to enable the broken or disfigured member to be removed and replaced by a new one.

With a stove of this character an even heat may be secured as the tiles assist in the tact with one another, an integral skeleton outer frame spaced from the inner casing to form a chamber between said casingand skeleton frame and comprising vertical standards adapted for covering the vertical side edges of adjoining tiles and cross ribs I tween said casing and frame when the top 10 adapted for covering the horizontal edges is removed, the tiles being in edgewise conof adjacent superimposed tiles, and a top tact with one another at all sides.

supported on the drum formed by the casing In testimony whereof I afliX my signature tiles and skeleton frame, the skeleton frame in presence of two witnesses.

having open spaces between the standards BARNEY TANCHOFF.

and cross ribs through Which said tiles are Witnesses: exposed, and said tiles being adapted for Jon WALDNER, removal through the top of the chamber be- GEO. HORN.
